Instructions

Prepare the curry yogurt dressing by mixing all dressing ingredients in a small bowl.
Add the chickpeas to a large bowl. Then mash them partially (optional) with a fork or a potato masher.
Add the remaining salad ingredients and the dressing to the chickpeas. Season with salt and pepper, then stir until everything is well-combined. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

Serving tips: I recommend serving the salad with leafy greens (e.g. baby spinach) as a wrap or sandwich. You could also make a bowl with rice and leafy greens. Or serve the chickpea salad in lettuce cups for a light and healthy snack!
Make it vegan: To make this recipe vegan, substitute the greek yogurt and honey with vegan yogurt and maple syrup.
